<p class="p">When you use icon view, you can choose to have extra information about

files and folders displayed in a caption under each icon. This is useful,

for example, if you often need to see who owns a file or when it was last
89
<p class="p">You can zoom in a folder by clicking the view options button in the
91
toolbar and choosing a zoom level with the slider. As you zoom in, the

file manager will display more and more information in captions. You can

choose up to three things to show in captions. The first will be displayed at

most zoom levels. The last will only be shown at very large sizes.</p>
